Daniel John Debrunner commented on QUARKS-139:
----------------------------------------------
Is there any tracking on what needs to be done to complete the gradle build as well as what
is its current state?
Would a wiki page be a good idea?
E.g. I haven't looked yet to see if the manifest entries are correctly created when using
gradle, when I tried there didn't seem to be any gradle tooling to create manifest classpath
entries easily.

> Project: Quarks
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Analytics, API, Applications, Connectors, Console, Documentation,
Miscellaneous, Runtime, Samples, Test, Utils
> Reporter: Lance Feagan
> Assignee: Dale LaBossiere
> Labels: build
> Original Estimate: 168h

> By moving to a build system that supports transitive dependency management, the repository
size can be decreased and users can more easily integrate quarks with their own applications
by allowing the version of a dependency to float within an acceptable range, assuming proper
semantic versioning of the dependencies.
> [~bjhargrave] has created the initial set of gradle files with PR-131. The gradle work
is still WIP. The existing build mechanisms are still in place and are to be used.
> TODOs
> - Add license headers to gradle files - QUARKS-203
> - Update build doc
> - Java7 build support
> - Android build support
> - Release target, creating the target/… structure - QUARKS-204
> - Junit parity
> - need top level aggregating report
> - Javadoc parity - QUARKS-205
> - Jacoco parity
> - building from Eclipse
> - .classpath files have refs to ext jars that will be removed from the repo
> - switch travis-ci to gradle
> - cleanup
> - remove ext jars from repo.
> Question: ext contains LICENSE/NOTICE/README files.
> Note needed anymore as Quarks repo won’t contain the jars?
> Just want something in README.md or such to list the dependencies?
> - remove the ant build related files
> [ Original from [~lfeagan]
> I have an initial set of work for this effort completed using gradle. Nearly all sub-projects
build at this time--the notable exception being the android-dependent sub-projects. The other
notable missing element is the integration of JaCoCo. In both cases, these should be simple
additions. ]
